This recently renovated Bellevue Hill residence is a perfect family oasis, with every luxury under the sun including a swimming pool and even a basketball half court in the front yard. Sotheby’s International managing director Michael Pallier says the basketball practice area has been popular with buyers.

“The owners have a couple of teenage boys, so it’s the perfect place to disperse excess energy,” he said.

“And buyers love it — it’s something a bit different.”

Pallier has a $9m price guide ahead of a November 21 auction
